Remember: You can return to Home Page Builder
by using the "Back" button on your browser
(usually a left-pointing arrow near the top of the screen).

How do I save my new home page?

Microsoft Internet Explorer/Netscape 2.0: While viewing your page in its display window (not Home Page Builder), just select the browser menu option "File ...
Save as ..." and select a directory and name for your page.

How do I save my background graphic?

Microsoft Internet Explorer: While viewing the Home Page Builder selection page, point to the graphic you want to use (in the
background graphic selection block), press the right mouse button, and choose "Save Picture As ...", and select a directory for
your graphic. The graphic name should not be changed, and the graphic should be placed in the same directory as your new
page.

Netscape 2.0: While viewing the Home Page Builder selection page, point to the graphic you want to use (in the background
graphic selection block), press the right mouse button, and choose "Save This Image As ...", and select a directory for your
graphic. The graphic name should not be changed, and the graphic should be placed in the same directory as your new page.

I have selected a few popular background graphics, but there are many more on the Web.

How do I install my page on the Web?

This is sometimes the hardest part. Here are some ways to do it, from the easiest to the hardest:

Ask a friend who has already done it.

Tell your Internet Service Provider (ISP) that you have a page and you need help installing it.

Acquire an FTP client program (there are several listed at the Winfiles site), learn how to use it, and install the page
yourself.

Take a magic brain pill, become a total Net Nerd and build your own online virtual world (not recommended for the faint of
heart — or the sane).

What's all this about like and dislike? What if I want to use these lists for something else?

Hey, good idea! In fact, you can type in any title you want for either likes or dislikes, and use the lists for whatever information you want to have on your page.

How do I Copy & Paste something from another application?

Launch the other application, load the document that has the text you want, and select the text by dragging the mouse over it. Select
"Edit ... Copy" or press the toolbar copy button. Now launch your browser and select "Home Page Builder." Put the cursor in the text
entry area you want and select "Edit ... Paste" or press the toolbar "Paste" button.

How do I Enter an Internet URL * Address?

Here is a sample entry:

Type of Service

Address

Descriptive Name

The complete URL * address for www.neatplace.com on the Word Wide Web is http://www.neatplace.com. But the prefix (http://) can
only be one of a small set, so you get to select it from a list of prefixes using the "Type of Service" drop-down list. This just saves you
a little time. Then you type in the rest of the address (www.neatplace.com) in the field marked "Address." Finally, under "Descriptive
Name" you type in how you want the link to look to your readers (A Really Neat Place!). This entry produces a link that looks like
this: A Really Neat Place! (point your mouse cursor at this link — you will see what it points to at the bottom of your browser's
display).

This is a classic Hypertext link. It contains a URL address for computers to read in the first two fields (http://www.neatplace.com)
and it contains a descriptive name for humans to read in the third field (A Really Neat Place!).
